Cp. Wu et al., MISCIBILITY OF PHENOXY POLYMER POLY(METHYL ACRYLATE-CO-METHYL METHACRYLATE) BLENDS/, European Polymer Journal, 34(9), 1998, pp. 1261-1263
A series of poly(methyl acrylate-co-methyl methacrylate)s were synthes
ized, and their miscibility with phenoxy was studied by using differen
tial scanning calorimeter (DSC) and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR)
measurements. The DSC results show that copolymers were miscible with
phenoxy when the weight content of MMA was higher than 70%. The FTIR s
pectra indicate that strong hydrogen-bond interaction exists in the mi
scible copolymer/phenoxy blends while only weak interaction in the imm
iscible blends is observed. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights
